Strongly agree

No, treat all traffic equally and continue the openness of the internet

Supporting the openness of the internet and treating all traffic equally would be in line with the CDS – People's Party's stance on ensuring fair competition and protecting consumer rights.

Agree

No

Slightly agree

Yes, but only give priority by type (video over images) and not source (big website over little website)

While the idea of prioritizing traffic by type rather than source might seem like a compromise, the CDS – People's Party would likely have reservations about any form of prioritization that could lead to unfair advantages or impact consumer rights. Their support might be lukewarm, recognizing the technical argument but wary of potential abuses.

Slightly disagree

Yes, only if it’s strictly based on a pay-per-quality model

A pay-per-quality model might appeal to the party's free-market principles, but concerns about fairness, market competition, and consumer protection would likely temper their support. The CDS – People's Party would probably be cautious about any scheme that could disadvantage smaller players or harm consumer interests.

Disagree

Yes, this would make the internet faster and more reliable for users

The argument that prioritizing access for paying websites makes the internet faster and more reliable might appeal to the party's free-market inclinations. However, considering their commitment to consumer rights and fair competition, they would likely view such practices with skepticism due to potential negative impacts on market fairness and consumer choice.
